Is this a possible future transfer risk?

Josh was reportedly considering it before the season but decided to stick. I guess he could still go someplace and play for two years. His time is probably passed to break the two-deep here.
Seems unlikely for George with just one year of eligibility. He'll at least contribute next year and it's not like he hasn't gotten a fair shot to be RB1.

If they leave this year, they will have to sit one year before playing. Might as well get your degree before you leave. It would make no sense to transfer now.

"You are our favorite guest"....?

Really? There's no one else?

For a parent of two ND football players, you'd think he'd have a better clue about what is going on. Not to mention, telling your sons you will not be attending their game because of some bizarre stance to disagree with the location of the game? I'm sorry, sir, this is not the way to make a stance. You go to your son's games no matter what you agree or disagree with. It isn't about you. Bringing up 12-0 vs 8-4 is ridiculously odd as well. You lost your heart and soul of the defense, and the signal caller of the offense, of course there is going to be some let down. Not to mention the amount of injuries the team suffered throughout the season and the tough schedule we faced.

These comments by Mr. Atkinson are embarrassing and baseless.

Check yourself before you wreck yourself, sir.

Dave is a classmate of mine and one helluva good man. I may have met him at ND, but I don't recall one way or t'other. I do know that I sat and talked with him once or twice in my dinning room here in Minneapolis.

Don't hurl unsubstantiated stereotypes, phillip.

Well, then GAIII's dad should try to not live down to them.

Casper was the exception for the Raiders of that era.

But just listen to those Raiders that speak up about their teams from that time and you would think they won every SB ever played that decade and deserve to have more HOFers than the Steelers or Cowboys of the same era.

Now I'm glad my dad only went out in the front yard wearing a Hawaiian shirt, fishing cap, his favorite old shorts, black socks and tire tread sandals to mow the lawn when I was a kid.

Son, is that you? You forgot that I always wore my wire-rim sunglasses out in the yard as well.

Did he slather zinc oxide on his nose?

Yikes! I feel embarrassed for him and his sons. A father should not embarrass his kids just because he craves a little bit of media attention.
